Hill International (HIL) recently announced the company has entered into an agreement with Talaat Moustafa Group Holding Co. (TMG), one of the leading residential and hotel developers in Egypt. The companies will form a new joint venture company that will provide project and construction management services exclusively on TMG projects throughout Egypt and elsewhere in the world.

The new joint venture will be owned 50% by Hill and 50% by TMG and will be headquartered in Cairo, Egypt. The company is expected to immediately begin managing the construction of several of TMG’s largest developments. These developments include the Mega Mall in Madinaty, the Four Seasons Hotel Luxor, the Four Seasons Hotel Madinaty, and a major expansion to the existing Four Seasons Resort in Sharm El Sheikh.

The two-year contract has as estimated value to Hill of between $1.0 and $2.0M.
